I know nothing about that airplane. Never heard of it until just now, but most really short takeoffs are made well below the correct speed for turbulent air.

I would suspect wind shear related to stall speed probably cause one wing to stall.

Most accidents like that end up with the aircraft cartwheeling with no survivor.

It was the off-field aircraft many of us dreamed of flying/owning.
